Wow - 150 jets!!

So how many gliders, microlights and other light aircraft are there in the Coventry area who will have a large area of airspace blocked?

We had this problem years ago when the F111s were operating from Upper Heyford. A massive area reserved for a miniscule number of movements. At the time we joked about the fact that these aircraft were destined to blast through the Russian anti-aircraft defences, but they had to keep our Swallows and Ka8s out of their way.
